Numeracy

Term 1 - 
Additive Thinking: 
Students... 
Set 4) Counts on or back from larger number involving add/sub - single digits. Uses the language to identify add/sub. 
Set 5) Solves problems by partitioning or uses known facts to ten to solve add/sub problems. 
Set 6) Solves two and three digit problems in which the operation is transparent in the wording of the problem by applying a strategy, such as, compensation, tidy numbers. 
Set 7) Responds flexibly to add/sub problems involving whole and decimal numbers by applying, exploring and explaining a range of strategies 
Set 8) Demonstrates flexibility, strong number sense and an ability to mentally carry out multiple steps as they estimate and solve complex problems that involve add/sub whole numbers, decimals, fractions and integers. 
Multiplicative Thinking: 
Students...
Set 4)Solve single-digit single-step multiplication problems. Solves division problems by using known multiplication facts or by trial and error with different sized groups. 
Set 5) Use multiplication facts and PV knowledge to solve multiplication and division problems involving single-digit multipliers or divisors. 
Set 6) Solve multi-digit problems by applying the multiplicative strategy. Is likely to include PV or compensation. 
Set 7) Solve multiplication and division problems involving whole numbers, common fractions and decimals and percentages. 
Set 8) Estimate and solve complex problems that involve operating on whole numbers, decimals, fractions and integers. 

Term 2

Using Symbols and Expressions to think mathematically

Students...

Set 3) read and record equality and simple inequality statements of additive and multiplicative computations and explain thinking.

Set 4) Read and record additive and multiplicative equality and inequality statements in situations involving unknowns. Recognise the need to use an inverse operation to find an unknown.

Set 5) Use algebraic convention of letter symbols and recognise the concept of equivalence.

Set 6) Write equality statements of problem situations involving four or more terms or factors, including one unknown. Use formal operations to solve equations involving real number by operating equally on both sides.

Patterns and Relationships

Students...

Set 3) continue and describe growing sequential spatial and number patterns to solve problems.

Set 4) connect elements of sequential patterns with their ordinal position to solve problems.

Set 5) Use tables, graphs and rules to solve problems that involve sequential patterns.

Set 6) Use diagrams, tables, graphs and equations to solve problems that involve linear relationships.
